Bill, your words have been part of my life since the Eject! Eject! Eject! days, and to me, you are probably one of the most clear-thinking and -speaking conservatives since Kirk, Reagan, and Limbaugh. There is that strong “common sense” streak in what you say, and I’ve lost count of the times you have led me to both deeper thought about things and, just as importantly, to laugh, too.
Please, do not despair; the torrent seems overwhelming right now, but that is not what we are to look at. I too, like so many here, genuinely love my country; being raised during the Reagan years didn’t hurt a bit! (Come Independence Day, our place generally looks like we’re expecting a Presidential visit.) Seeing what is happening of late has left me feeling shocked and heartbroken more than once, and truly, I see some dark times ahead. Like Zo, I’m a Christ-follower, and look both to Him and our future home with Him; Jesus has already won; we’re just waiting to see the full effect of that. In that is all real hope and joy.
Still, for the moment we are here on earth—in Babylon, as it were. After God had exiled His own people to Babylon, He told them to settle down, build homes and gardens, raise families, and look forward to grandchildren; they were in that for the long haul, yet God told them to find future and happiness even in being disciplined. It’s beginning to sound very personal, that admonition.
Even as we (understandably) fear for our country, the one God Himself chose to place us in, I want to exhort everyone, yourself included, to recall the importance of the transcendentals, the eternal things—truth, beauty, and goodness. What seems small and insignificant may in fact be more important than we realize, and it is certainly not coincidental that all three of these things are under attack at the moment. Yet nor is it coincidental that all three emanate from God—the epitome and source of the trio. Morning or evening walks with loved ones, visiting with neighbors, adding beautiful things to our homes and, yes, gardens to our porches and yards—while seemingly small, these golden threads strengthen and refresh, often through their very simplicity.
Moreover, faithfulness is a tremendous virtue, particularly when all seems lost. It is the last man standing at his post as the barbarians rush toward him we admire, love, and hope our children imitate. While of course Christ is the ultimate example of faithfulness at a thankless post (we know how that turns out!), your love of American history, I am certain, will serve you well here and, I think, already has; even when you tell us you are exhausted and feel the shadows of hopelessness creeping toward you, Bill, I see you remaining at your post. When all does seem utterly lost, perhaps it is faithfulness that is in fact the highest virtue, for the faithful love something else so much more than themselves that they stand between the beloved and the apparently already-victorious threat.
Fear not; despair not. You’re not alone, as evidenced by so many comments here and Zo’s excellent counsel.
You and the others (far too often I tell my husband about something “Whittle and the boys” were talking about…sorry, gentlemen!) are in my prayers all the time.

Dear Bill and Alfonzo,
Thanks to you both for being men when it is very tough to carry that load. I tend to save up your episodes so I have something to listen to when I am feeling down. I have to tell you that this episode was hard at first. But then I realized that I was hearing exactly what I needed to hear exactly when I needed to hear it. Thank you for listening to our Father, so that in meeting your need to be strong warriors in this fight, you also aid others in putting on the whole armor of God.
Thank you both so much for having the self knowledge and strength to face all that you do. It is encouraging to me that you are willing to do the research and live lives so much on the front lines of this war. You inspire a whole lot of people. Perhaps we are not so numerous as before, but it could be that some folks have moved on to fight in their own way and new folks have taken their place. Please know that you are making a difference in my life, and I am very grateful. Your words help me to understand what is going on, and that helps me to help others to understand as well. The stones you are tossing into our pond are sending out ripples far and wide.
With much respect and love,
Sue Poucher

BILL, I wish to remind you of what your words, your ideas and your videos did for just 1 young woman recovering from brain surgery. Occasionally glance at her little drawing she made depicting pajamas, a TV, a fire, and a wall. You make a difference in this world. Your words have stayed with her for years. Same with my wife and me.

Bill, I understand your despair and your justified anger at the evil in the world. Unfortunately, we are now under a pagan ruling class, with the pagans controlling our government, the media, our education system, the entertainment world and social media. By controlling everything that we see and hear everyday, their purpose is to wear us down. You said it perfectly, they want to divide us and make us believe that we are the only ones to think as we do. All of us that go against the public narrative feel that we are alone in our beliefs. We know it’s even harder for you since you make your thoughts and beliefs public. But know that by doing your work, you are encouraging and inspiring us to have the strength to do the same in our own little circle. And by doing this, we build on these ideas and create the community needed to turn the tide and defeat the evil. Thank you Bill for your courage and for taking up the fight. You are not alone, and I will be praying that God will continue to strengthen you so you can continue strengthening us. You have a great friend in Alfonzo. He is a wise man and knows that the answer always is “Jesus I trust in you”.

Bill,

The one thing I am religious about is following your commentary, unfortunately I missed this episode originally. Your honesty is what I admire about you. Authenticity is hard to come by, but not with what you have designed with your select group of free thinking individuals.
I have to tell you that so many times your commentary keeps me positive and reminds us that we have the truth on our side. You also reminded us recently to be happy warriors. All that is going on in our country pulls me down at times, and when someone tells me that I am aging out, that is just a cop out that we are defeated and will just allow the left to destroy everything that is right and disregard the consequences on the future for my children and grandchildren. We will beat these bastards because there is no choice.
Zo is such a great addition and I am so thankful with the wisdom and discernment he shares with all of us. We are in a battle of good vs evil and I love Zo reminding us that we win. Scott Ott and Steve Green are such great teammates and add that balance, and they are the soldiers you have on your side and you don’t need some of those deserters you referred to.
This verse is my go to when I get overwhelmed about life in general and it keeps me focused on our Lord who gives us strength and will guide us through all the battles.
Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.” Joshua 1:9
God Bless you Bill and I pray for you and those good men by your side to keep exposing the left and putting that sunlight there to disinfect.

Keeping you in my prayers, Bill. We all need a way to sharpen the saw, to steal a phrase from Stephen Covey. For me, it is singing. The rehearsals are a way to forget about the stuff the is pulling me down. Running through 8 or 9 Songs of Praise at church one evening and symphony music another evening is both a release and a refresh. Especially since we are rehearsing Messiah for the Symphony.
Find something to do to recharge each week, maybe go back to flying. You can’t be worried about politics and be a pilot.

It is great fun and soul refreshing. Even our “Holiday Pops” concert is replete with uplifting anthems: O Holy Night / The First Noel / among others. And singing with the orchestra is work that takes focus. I can’t be thinking about politics while trying to execute those 16th note runs in “He shall purify”. They go by much too quickly.

Music soothes the soul…
I used to sing w/ a community choir yearly “Messiah” production, and even got up the courage after a couple of years to try for some solos (Soprano). I also sang in our community college choir for a number of years, and absolutely loved the rehearsals, singing your heart out, giving it your all… and then having to wake up early the next morning to go to work, that took some perseverance (getting up, going to work).
The remnant exists, Bill and Zo, we’re here, and we need you.

I missed this when it was originally posted.
Bill. Thank you so very much for being a MAN, in all ways… you and Alfonso. Thank you for standing in the gap. Thank you for your honesty about the personal cost of what you are doing. I have been following both of you since long ago in PJ Media days and funnily enough, you’re pretty much the only two from that time that I still follow regularly.
And skip as many episode postings as you need to… I’ll never unsubscribe! Voices of truth are hard to find these days.

Somehow, I managed to miss this episode and saw it just last night.

Yes, we do need to put on the full armor of God to fight the good fight and occupy until He comes. However, at the same time we also need to recognize that God places and removes kings all to His purpose. God created governments, man created politics.

I heard a story from the director of The Chosen that I think will help you. He had the start of a great career until he suffered a huge flop at the box office. Immediately, his promising career dried up. He went through all of the motions that most of us do to figure out what went wrong, and it didn’t help him feel any better.

Out of the blue, a person he knew only through Facebook sent him a DM. All he said was, “It’s not your job to feed the 5,000, it’s only your job to bring the loaves and fishes.” Meaning that, just be a tool that God can use – He will take care of the rest. In other words, give the burden to Him.

The reference, of course, is to the feeding of the 5,000 at the Sermon on the Mount. Jesus, knowing that He couldn’t send the multitudes away on an empty stomach after speaking to them for several days, took the few loaves and fishes they had and multiplied them.

Also take solace in that everything we’re starting to experience has all been prophesied in the Bible – both in old and new testaments. Knowing that alone has eliminated the bulk of my frustrations and has also prevented me from slipping into despair. Evil is having a heyday now, but we do indeed win in the end.

Our society has been ‘Romans-1’d’. When God can’t get through, He gives people up to their desired sin. That is what we are seeing. We’re also seeing a polarization taking place – those that believe in God and those that don’t. We’re in a spiritual battle, not a political one. Heck, it was even prophesied that we wouldn’t be eating meat during these times (1 Timothy 4:3 KJV).

To quote Luke, “when you see these things begin to happen, look up, for your redemption draws near.”

Bill, I noticed the similarity of your current difficulty with one I had over 30 years ago. I’ve been an active pro-lifer for well over 40 years, but about 40 years ago I ended up more of a leader. I found myself in despair, spiraling down and down, thinking, “We’re just a pro-life group, we’re all small potatoes, and Planned Parenthood has a huge moneymaking operation, so they can pay for flashy ads and large numbers of staff members. What can we do against that?” I realized that I was about to become useless to myself and those around me. For me, the solution was to surround myself with contrary messages, all focused on the fact that I don’t control the world. I made little signs of (1) the Serenity Prayer, (2) Mother Teresa’s maxim of “It’s not my job to be successful. It’s my job to be faithful.” God decides what success is. and (3) a presidential (long ago) motto of “Do what you can, with what you have, where you are.” because in many ways, that the full extent of your resources. I plastered these all over the place, on my computer, in the notebooks that hold the information I need to function, and as placemarks for books I was reading. So I got reminded all the time.
The other piece of it is that rarely in pro-life work do you see success. People don’t say, “Golly, you changed my mind.” So I never know when I’ve succeeded. However, I’ve learned that I don’t have to know. God knows. Like Mother Teresa said, I just have to do what I think I’m supposed to do and trust that God’s doing the heavy lifting. I get a glimmer now and then that I did something good and those are greatly encouraging, if very, very rare.
Bless you, Bill. Don’t give up. You make a difference.

The weight of the country is on you, but how do you know that is supposed to be your burden? Take the weight off your neck.
The first person I went to after the election was you. I needed a path forward, and you were the one to provide it. You provided hope and clarity. I remember you stating that the loss of the election was your fault. You put too much on yourself. No one person can do what you are trying to do. Look at all the comments on this video. People care about you. You have affected us all.
People are burned out. They need a break and will return.
Your first priority is your family and yourself. The entire mountain is not yours alone to conquer. Listen to Zo.

Bill, it’s ok to feel debilitating despair at times. I get it, I’m sick of where our country is and where it’s headed. Many of us are burnt out. Just let me tackle one thing. Forget those so called friends, they NEVER were. I have jettisoned many like them from my life and in the end, it resulted in a small core of even closer folks around me where we ALL help each other when the despair gets overwhelming. This core is what reinvigorates ones soul. You are NOT alone, there are many of us (you) out here! Zo is 110% on point and he and you would blend well in many discussions we have. We have not personally met but consider both of you friends as odd as that sounds. One thing I will never do is give up and you will not give up either. Despair has the advantage for people who don’t give up is it gets your thoughts moving into another direction in working through the problem. Another thing that helps is with some current events nonsense is to be aware but ignore a good chunk of it. For example, when I hear more babble about vote fraud, I think is anyone hanging from a tree because of it yet? Yes, ok you got my attention. No… well no reason to dwell on it and move on. We know they cheated but I can not do anything about it. Peace my friend, please don’t stress it makes our hair gray. Oops too late 😉 Long time member. Cheers, Joe.

Bill, This is a much harder war to fight than what our forefathers fought to keep liberty and freedom alive. This is a war fought on every human level especially in our minds. We must stay focused with laser beam intensity to defeat these leftist communist bastards. You sir and your crew of merry men are our voice. We rally around your leadership. Thanks Bill, Zo, Scott and Steve.

Bill – Love you and your shows – dont give up the ship! I feel your pain and have been struggling with the same feelings. What I noticed in this segment is you kept saying you just don’t know what to do, and Zo kept giving you the answer. God’s got this. We can try to put our faith in men and women (even good ones or great ones) and we will be let down every single time. Faith in God and saving faith in Christ is the answer. I know this is not a religious forum and some will tell me to get lost, but that’s par for the course. There’s one place to find peace in all of this and it’s in knowing that regardless of what we think should be happening, it is all completely under control. We just dont know the whole story. We just know how it ends. We win. God wins.

Well, Bill, you’re always going to run into people who don’t get it – who like what you do sometimes, but don’t really “get” it. And they’re going to come and go, and often be tactless about it.

No, we don’t want you to end up like Andrew. You need to address the stress and blood pressure as best you can. Get out, get some regular exercise, and live for your wife more than you do for us.

I once told you that it’s more than people just not feeling like they’re alone. You and your colleagues give people who know there’s something wrong but just not able to articulate it … you guys articulate and the words will rub off and they spread, like ripples in water.

Moses, of course, didn’t get to see the promised land. I think in the Bible he was not allowed to see it because of doubt.

Who is shooting at you from the rear? Are YOU reaching out to them? Honest question. You are well respected in the conservative community and I am certain the people on PJTV know it. We get busy in our own lives and what we’re doing and we let people die to us. Sometimes it’s as much our fault as it is theirs. Not saying that’s the case here, but you should at least condider there might be something to it. Happens to me. Happens to everyone.

I love Zo … he’s not for everyone in this community, I get it. One thing I don’t understand, though, is … just watch the other shows if him drawing from his faith bothers you. Doesn’t bother me at all — I find his faith inspiring.

I would be willing to bet that Obama couldn’t come up with one real example to back up his claim about people disparaging Clemens. Seriously. But people buy it, and they buy it because it makes them feel superior to ficticious people they have projected on their opponents. They NEED to do it for their own self-esteem.

I had a pretty rough childhood, and a late development into emotional maturity because of it. But I was given some of the tools to deal with it … the ability to compartmentalize my suffering and know I was just wait it out. Put my head down and trudge through it trusting there was something worth doiing it for on the other side. And it has turned out again and again it is in general, true.

Even in dealing with burnout. Put your head down, put one foot in front of the other, go through the motions because you believe in the motions and eventually your faith will return. There are many valleys of darkness we must go through in life. It’s part of life.

And the bit about Jonah planting seeds… I tell my friends who are parents of teenagers that is ultimately what they need to do. Plant the seeds. They’re probably going to rebel and it will seem like they didn’t hear you, but more likely than not — in several years they’ll run across something in life and your words will come back to them and they’ll see the truth.

I once missed an event here in Central Missouri where Zo was one of the guest speakers, and I’ve regretted it ever since.

I did go the next year and C.L. Bryant was the headliner and it was great, but I was disappointed that I missed Zo when I had the chance.

along with others….i believe bill should consider leaving california, move and i mean now. pic your top 8 destinations and drop one a week after solid research. in two months you’ll have a goal. next form a conjoining plan, just go ahead and giterdone….then never look back.

revisionist history destroys the ethos of men. that’s the goal and that’s always the result. bill has been gobsmacked by that unspoken and never discussed truth.

what they want bill?….civil war. then they get marshal law using the military they have converted. then they confiscate the guns…by force if necessary. then they fundamentally change america into the commune they covet.
THAT’S what they want and 60%+ have bought into that paradigm.

Ephesians 6:13 ” Therefore put on the full armor of god, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, TO STAND.” —-son gentlemen, just stand firm, but STAND……

Pastor Zo and the Church of the Remnant.

I’d much rather have this muscular version of Christianity.

Bill, you should have Critical Drinker on. I think you would enjoy his views on the role of the narrative.

I congratulate you Bill in that you have taken the first step to confront the battle being waged against your Internal Self (the TRUE SELF) and the External World. This confrontation is Universal for ALL Human Beings. AWARENESS, yes AWARENESS that something is Wrong, the pieces don’t fit together, WHY? Am I confronted with so many obstacles that are tearing my inside apart?
THE BIG question that comes into focus immediately is WHAT? do I do next? Let me offer the following: 1) take several Moments to PAUSE 2) WITHOUT Judgement, Expectation just be an OBSERVER of a given situation. Yes, become an OBSERVER. Check out WHAT. your are experiencing psychologically, emotionally, physically, spiritually and intellectually. Again without labeling the experience and ONLY observe.
Doing this allows you to see the TRUTH clearly and unfiltered. You will see and realize that you are not the experience, the External. Don’t claim ownership of IT. Therein, lies your dilemma. You will upon this realization, determine that this IT is not you. You, the Internal is totally different from the External a world with all ITS demands, rules, policies and confusions.
The ball is in your court. Be not afraid to walk into a very dark room where when the FEAR is overcome another door on the other side when opened offers you even More OPPORTUNITY. TAKE the challenge.

Bill – you don’t know how many times you, Zo, Steve and Scott have given me hope that one day Good will win over Evil. Pray. Scream into your pillow. Take some time off from the videos. You push yourself so hard. Let the other guys take over for a while. You need to rest and recharge.
We need you. We’re praying for you.

Bill, I am in exactly the same place. The panic, despair, depression, etc., is overwhelming and crushing. I’ve spent my life as the one that sees that the Emperor has no clothes. I’m also Cassandra: I see the truth but am cursed to not be able to convince others. I still don’t know how to deal with that impotence.
I am frantically trying to learn how to best speak the truth. It means being calm and confident. People will not listen if your message is panicked. But how do you remain calm when you know and see what we know and see?

Dearest Bill… I have watched you for years, and I really enjoy you, the perspectives offered, and the people you are in this with. I feel very bad for you, and honestly, I am (and have been) in the same place. People keep saying it is “up to you”, and “stand up! Be counted” (like THAT won’t end up with you in solitary confinement for 11 months with no charges…). But NO ONE has been able to tell me how to do that. With you, you have developed a platform and you reach a lot of people. Until we won in Virginia this week, I had almost given up hope in anything other than a major miracle from God with this beautiful country. And yes… we have lost friends due to the last election and which candidate we supported, and due to the VX and whether or not we are willing to be jabbed. My beautiful husband of 38 years is being forced into retirement after 40 years because of mandates. It would be easy to give up… But for some reason, we don’t. Please don’t give up. We love you, and need you.
And Zo, I remember you from your YouTube days, with you blowing up a television and your beautiful wife throwing a shoe at you (ha!).
You two along with Scott and Steve (hope I spelled that right) are an important part of my perspective on things especially now. Please know that you are not in this alone, although I am not sure that will help much. God Bless and please take care. Know that you are loved and supported even though we have never met.

Bill, thank you for your honesty. Zo, thank you for giving the Biblical perspective. I do know how you feel. I have been an independent self-supporting missionary in Japan for the past 40 years. Attendance in our service this morning (we’re ahead of you in longitude) was 10. In 40 years, I have yet to receive as much financially from the church in the course of a year as I have given in offerings. However, God has been faithful. I’m currently 73, and God tells me he’s not through with me yet. I don’t know what that’s going to mean, but I know that in the long run it’s going to be good. I do want to say that I look forward eagerly to each video you post, and I do pray for you. My first automatic renewal of membership comes up on the 10th, and I must say the past year has been more than worth the money. I was very glad to hear you, Bill, say at the end that you realized that you can’t save America, but that’s not your job. Actually, none of us can do squat on our own, but God does choose to use us, and every once in a while we get to see the results. Grace, peace, and comfort be upon you.

Maybe this will help too
Matthew 11:28 Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 29 Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am [f]gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.”:

Aside from talking with a friend as you did, I’m not sure if reading about a little known hero of the American Revolution will help or perhaps make things worse. Yet I offer this story in the hope that it will be helpful. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haym_Salomon. Yet when he had done his best and contributed all he could, he died in poverty at the age of 44. But this is what he said.  “I know that you’ve given, even beyond your means, but know we must give again. It isn’t charity I ask, it’s an offering to the cause of liberty, a cause sacred to us above all others, because centuries of bitter persecution have taught us the value of liberty. If we want to continue living as free men in a free land, if we want to bequeath this priceless treasure to our children, then we must give. It is not our duty to leave wealth to our children but it is our duty to leave freedom.” I remember him along with Washington and Jefferson and say thank you.

Romans 1:18-32. Depraved minds, Bill, with all that goes with it. Speak the truth as you and Zo continue to do, along with Steve and Scott. Those who are His will stay with you, never mind the rest. Remember, we know how this all comes out, and those that belong to Jesus win in the end. Take heart, enjoy your wife, and soldier on!

Remember the Lord sees all these things happening. Verse 4, The Lord laughs at these people. We are in the battle with you guys. It’s talking with people in the check out line, it’s talking with my autobody shop guy, people at Church. The country is aware of the battle, we know their tactics. Sometimes you just gotta stand back and laugh at these fools. But not to burst your ego,” if it’s to be it’s up to me”
The Messiah’s Triumph and Kingdom
Why do the [a]nations [b]rage,
And the people plot a [c]vain thing?

The kings of the earth set themselves,
And the rulers take counsel together,
Against the Lord and against His Anointed,[dsaying,

“Let us break Their bonds in pieces
And cast away Their cords from us.”

He who sits in the heavens shall laugh;
The Lord shall hold them in derision.

Then He shall speak to them in His wrath,
And distress them in His deep displeasure:

“Yet I have [e]set My King
[f]On My holy hill of Zion.”

“I will declare the [g]decree:
The Lord has said to Me,
‘You are My Son,
Today I have begotten You.

Ask of Me, and I will give You
The nations for Your inheritance,
And the ends of the earth for Your possession.

You shall [h]break them with a rod of iron;
You shall dash them to pieces like a potter’s vessel.’ ”
10 
Now therefore, be wise, O kings;
Be instructed, you judges of the earth.
11 
Serve the Lord with fear,
And rejoice with trembling.
12 
[i]Kiss the Son, lest [j]He be angry,
And you perish in the way,
When His wrath is kindled but a little.
Blessed are all those who put their trust in Him.

Bill, the anguish and sorrow at the place you’ve found yourself is valid. Baring your inner most feelings is courageous and ennobling. You and Zo, coming out day after day, revealing truth, laying bare the facts, offering points to ponder, generating hope is extremely valuable. Watching you exhibiting righteous indignation against the daily onslaught of lies, misdirection and evil perpetrated by our enemies is powerful and strengthening to your supporters. Your passion and intensity and honesty, your intelligence and knowledge, and Zo’s talent and ability to relate today’s issues to God’s word and love gives encouragement and hope to many. You lessen our loneliness, and inspire us. You do more good than you realize. I admire and appreciate both of you, and I have immense empathy for the pain and frustration you feel.The temptation to give up must be overpowering at times. But I know you won’t give up. Your voices are beacons of light in the wilderness.

Whenever you feel you can’t go on, that you do no good, that nothing you say or do makes any difference, please remember it is Satan implanting those doubts and feelings of inefficacy in your mind. The evil one lives in darkness and is enraged by the light you shed upon its hideous ways. It is afraid of the influence you wield.

Shine on, Bill and Zo, shine on for us, and keep on keeping on.

Great discussion, guys! Bill, take some time to take a walk with your wife and just look at all our Lord has created simply for us to enjoy. I do that every day and it helps keep me grounded in reality. God really is in control and we win in the end. Your vocation is exactly what you and Zo are doing. God sees it, and I feel certain he approves. And remember Romans 8:31.

Bill:
These are the darkest days. But you are not alone, regardless of how you feel. Alfonzo is still here. I am still here. We are still fighting. You are not superman. We are not supermans. But remember that the world will still turn without your hand on the crank. Later, John.

Bill,
To the extent that I have any religious beliefs at all, it’s in the foundational principles of America. But I still listen to The Virtue Signal.
If you need to go spend six months in a rubber room, do it. I will still be fighting the vaccine mandates, secretly leading a group of employees at my company. Take the time you need. I promise you I will still be here when you feel better. I owe you that. You have inspired me for 17 years.

Oh, my dear, sweet, wonderful Bill, it really hurt my heart to see your agony. I hope you can see all of this from a different perspective. All people of conscience have their moments of frustration, self-doubt, and helplessness. YOU ARE NOT ALONE! 
The first time I saw Obama give a speech prior to the election, I recognized him as the utterly evil snake he is. His eyes were cold and uncaring even when he was smiling. He’s one of the despicable people on this planet who cares nothing for others at all. We see the same core of evil in Bill Gates, George Soros, Nancy Pelosi and so many others. I do all I can to fight back against them, but ultimately it will be a kind of Karma that brings them to justice. 
You, and Steve and Scott have been the primary factor that kept me clinging to hope during Obama’s entire reign of terror and now with Biden’s continuation of Obama’s agenda. I see my so very beloved country undermined daily and our population divided in every way possible. 
But, I do feel we, the sane, will prevail in time. I don’t know how long it will take, and I don’t know if I’ll live to see it, but I have complete faith in the core goodness of conservative Americans. 
My intentions in telling you how you and the Trifecta and Right Angle shows kept hope alive in me was not meant to impose a burden of doing that on you. It’s been a blessing to hear what was in my mind and heart expressed so eloquently by the three of you. 
We are all in this together and each of us does our part to stand up against the evil, not only in America, but globally. You, dear man, do your part and do it well. I felt the same utter disgust when I saw the interview with Obama and Springsteen, whom I’ve never really liked, but I decided to make fun of them with my husband and son eldest. We came up with some pretty awful slams against them and it felt really, really good. 😀
Don’t let the bastards get you down. Mark Twain was right about ridicule. Do that, even if it’s only to yourself, and Obama’s antics will fade away from your mind. It worked for me and I hope it will work for you. God bless you and those who work with and for you. You are all warriors, as are the rest of us doing what we can.

Perhaps it is also our responsibility to continue to let you know you are not alone in this battle. Keep the faith brother. We love what you do and that you do it for us. Perhaps a change of venue would be helpful? You are invited (and your lovely wife) to Nikiski, Alaska.
Semper Fi

GENTLEMEN… Semper Fi…. what that simple phrase contains in its core meaning… is the essence of what drives you and those like you on your mission. YOU are messengers – deliverers of TRUTH&LIGHT in an ocean of falsehoods & darkness and it’s a seemingly thankless-all consuming & endless task that only ends with your exit from our sight. Remain in our sight as long as possible.
Two simple concepts help me keep certain aspects of this current existence in perspective…
FIRST…. I like to imagine the mass of SOULS ,and their existence on this journey with me, as if they are the surface of a perfectly still body of water and a presence – an existence… a thought.. a message you may deliver is like a small pebble-dropped into that the “body of water”… and as immense that body of still water seems and as distant as the shores may seem from one another…. that pebble-that nugget of TRUTH & LIGHT must make an impact and the force of that release of your energy… of your “message” will touch every part of that body of water – even thou you can not see it…. even if that interaction seems without immediate result…
SECOND…. I reflect on this…
“PERSEVERANCE… in the confrontation between the STREAM and the ROCK… the stream always wins…. NOT through Strength but through PERSISTANCE….”
Thank you both .. “… endeavor to persevere …” the poem – not the line from “the Outlaw Josey Wales”… although that too has great resonance here as well… Thatisall-carry on

“For we are not contending against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world rulers of this present darkness, against the spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.”
– – Eph 6:12

That is: Our temporal world is just one Theater of Operations in a much bigger war. And it’s 1942…again. Note that 1943-45 weren’t much more fun than ’42, but just as expensive.
‘Zo is spot-on, regarding the daily (Biblical) refresh. Yeah, do that.
Keep the Faith, bra’!

Tony Blair was talking to an American audience after 9/11 and he answered the question: why us? why now? His answer was that this is our task to do. I’m so glad you’re here to remind us that we’re not alone in feeling crazy, or feeling rejected. I’m also glad that you finally got there with the idea that it’s not our job to convert anyone or save anyone. That’s God’s job. Thanks Bill and Zo for all your efforts. Keep it up!!

Keep going, there aim is to bludgeon you into submission, at some level we all feel the pressure, this started for many when they changed the divorce laws,the abortion laws, Immigration, for some it took until the Blair years to finally see their agenda. A long time, Keep going Bill.

We are in a war, and the bullets and bombs are all mental. The thoughts that tell us to give up, there’s no hope, there’s nothing anyone can do, we’re trapped, poisoned and exhausted—these are all mental bullets being fired at us. Our shield is our faith and love for what is right and good, and we are strengthened when we selflessly and authentically give voice to the truth of what is right and good. 
 
You and Zo are doing this, with grace and humility.
 
Numbers of subscribers and views will never be the measure of the enormous good you are doing. Never quit. Our labor is never in vain, and sooner or later, in one way or another, we will see the fruits of it.

It’s not just about you; there are people you don’t know that get important support from you. I like the other shows, but you and Zo are balm to my soul. Please listen to Zo. You are doing what you can, but God is in control.
You are speaking to the “remnant” But we are on the right side. Be of good cheer.

“You’ve got the truth” Bill. You aren’t alone in this war nor in this feeling of frustration and despair. I pray for strength for you and Zo and all the warriors of truth.

Jesus cried: “My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?” That question has never been answered. But if we believe in the Father, then we have to believe that He loves us and that no matter what we are called to suffer here on the earth; all things will be made right and we will come to know everything we need to know in order to reach our full potential in His kingdom.

I believe everyone is experiencing a level of tension. No one is able to live without a certain level of tension. Our country is so different. You are in a position where there is more pressure. Those who have not called you are not ignoring you. They are felling the pressure too and is causes isolation to be a good choice. It is not and the best choice anyone has is to trust Jesus more. He is going to bring you through.
Yes, we are all Tom Hanks to some level. You’re not alone. I share your program with someone who never heard you before and now looks forward to hearing you. Zo told you the truth. Embrace it.

Great episode! I have felt the same way for the last 2 years! Totally helpless in making any change in peoples perceptions as it seems the whole world is nuts. I felt a slight change towards the end with Zoe’s comments and could almost see the slight twinkle in your eyes return. Work has been slow again and thought about cancelling my subscription……NO! I will not give up! I, like you, was so over come with Andrews death, but refuse to give up or give in. Please accept my pidilly membership fee to keep the message going. Thank you.

Mr. Whittle (Bill), I have never commented on any of your videos, although I’ve enjoyed them for at least a decade. This one is especially profound to me, and I simply must thank you, I feel an almost roaring loneliness, despair for the country I love so much. You opened your heart and mind in such a personal way, helping me realize my dreary outlook is not unique. In the movie Shadowlands, CS Lewis is taught by one of his students: “We read to know we’re not alone.” You’ve given me that gift, and I needed it badly! Thank you. and thanks for bringing Zo on board. I hadn’t discovered him until you did that, and he is excellent! Please keep doing the soldiering for those of us who are inspired by your insight and unwavering honesty.
